Square Payments & Gift Card Integration
Stored value programs, QR cashless event wallets, loyalty integration, and branded gift card experiences — built natively on Square's Payments and Gift Cards API.
Three Stored Value Patterns on Square
Physical and digital gift cards issued under your brand, powered by Square Gift Cards API. Sold in your Square POS and online store, redeemed anywhere Square is accepted. Corporate bulk purchasing with custom denominations supported.
Our Cashless product activates Square gift cards as event currency. Guests load credits at the gate, spend at any vendor by showing a QR code, and get refunds on unspent balance after the event. No cash, no card handling at vendor booths.
Combine Square Loyalty with a stored value balance. Customers earn points on purchases; points convert to stored value automatically. The balance appears in their Square account and is redeemable at your POS.
What a Gift Card Integration Delivers
Square Gift Cards API Integration
We connect your web store, event platform, or custom application to Square's Gift Cards API. Cards are created, loaded, and redeemed through Square — all settlement goes to your Square account.
Corporate Bulk Purchase Flow
Companies buy blocks of gift cards for employee rewards or client gifts. The bulk purchase flow handles quantity, denomination selection, and delivery — physical cards, digital codes, or both.
POS and Online Redemption
Gift card redemption works at your Square POS and in your online checkout simultaneously. No split systems, no manual reconciliation between channels.
Balance Inquiry and Top-Up
Cardholders check their balance via a branded web page or SMS. They can top up their balance online and use the card immediately at the next transaction.
Reporting and Liability Tracking
Outstanding gift card liability is tracked in real time. Reports show total cards issued, total loaded, total redeemed, and outstanding balance — in Square's dashboard and in your custom reporting layer.
